Procedure for Annual Wellness Screening Labs
An appointment with a provider is required to request Health Fair Annual Wellness Screening Labs.
“Receiving blood tests without the help of a professional with expert understanding can often lead to inappropriate conclusions about one’s health,” explains Dr. Donald Kirk, chief medical officer. “It can also lead to unnecessary anxiety about tests that are out of the range of normal.”
- Requests for blood tests can be done by contacting your provider’s office in person or over the phone. They will provide you the signed form and your provider will meet with you to discuss which tests would be most beneficial.
- If you do not have a provider, you will need to schedule an office visit with a primary care provider to have the form signed and receive recommendations on which tests would be most beneficial.
After your test, your provider’s office will contact you with the lab results, and you can request a copy of the screenings by contacting the medical records office at 307-885-5839. The medical records office can only provide copies of the labs after a release is signed and cannot disclose any lab information over the phone.
